Don’t compost those kitchen scraps! Turn them into color!
In this fun and informative natural dye workshop, learn which kitchen waste can be turned into dyes to color your yarns and fiber. We will go over proper prep and mordanting to ensure color take up and fastness, and prepare dyebaths from a bunch of food based dyes, such as Black Beans, Avocado, Cabbage, Walnuts, Onion skins, pomegranate and more. An easy and cheap way to learn about natural dyes and create some beautiful yarns. Class participants will leave with a full set of mini skeins dyed in class.
